Emmanuel, Be advised that you can change out the tank. We have a standard scheme
that no longer requires the tank to be bonded into the fuselage. This minimises
the possibility of cracking in the walls of the tank.

Duane, not a bad video. After teaching for the last sixty years the FAA has dumb
down the ACS to the point I had to write a letter to the FAA, but it did no
good. Stalls are still killing people. When you watch this video he is trying
to get pilot to go to a safe airspeed, which I have no problem with. Some
GA pilot never practice stalls and when it does happen they don't believe it and
delay the recover. The Cessna' are hard to get into a spin, but once they
in it. You can let go and it will recover itself if rigged correctly. My Europa
would stall at 44 knots and break straight down. On the power on stalled
it was very difficult to get a good stall as it would start turning to the left
and stay right on the edge of the stall. Never span it as the book said not
to.
Having a quick reference line on the airspeed is a good Ideal, but I had an MGL
EFIS installed and not sure how I could mark it..
The best thing on the market is an AOA (Angle of Attach). I first saw this in
action back in Korea. Back seating in a F-4. The pilot flew the whole pattern
with the AOA at 14 degrees. The tone was just on and he showed me the indicator
was in the yellow range.
The MGL had a AOA and it worked very nicely during flight maneuvers. In the traffic
pattern I'd fly at 85 knots then slow to put flaps out. I'd get a tone
and an indication on the screen of my attitude. As I came in for landing the
tone would get high and the indicator would go red as I approached a stall.
I have ten airplane on my flight line and it cost 3k just to install an certify
AOA. What the guy in the video is doing is setting a safe speed on the airspeed
indicator.
A lot of the newer aircraft are coming from the factor with an AOA.
